DUI in a La-Z-Boy?

Yep, it actually happened.... Sounds like a misplaced Wisconsinite!!! Here's the associated press version: DULUTH, Minn. — A Minnesota man has pleaded guilty to driving his motorized La-Z-Boy chair while drunk. A criminal complaint says 62-year-old Dennis LeRoy Anderson told police he left a bar in the northern Minnesota town of Proctor on his chair after drinking eight or nine beers. Prosecutors say Anderson's blood alcohol content was 0.29, more than three times the legal limit, when he crashed into a parked vehicle in August 2008. He was not seriously injured. Police said the chair was powered by a converted lawnmower and had a stereo and cup holders. Sixth Judicial District Judge Heather Sweetland stayed 180 days of jail time Monday and ordered two years of probation for Anderson. His attorney, David Keegan, did not immediately return a call for comment. |

I guess Wisconsin has the highest level of drunk driving arrests. So...drunk drivers are trying new ways to escape the law. At least this one wasn't on the road. In some ways, I'm glad they're cracking down even on the clowns like this. I saw one once so drunk he drove uphill on the wrong side of the road. I was right behind him without a cell phone. I stopped at a truck stop..and lo and behold...3 state troopers were having dinner. I told them, and they flew out after him. I passed them 15 minutes later, the driver stopped and everyone kept safe.

I'd be a little concerned about all the other drunk drivers out there. Could you imagine them trying to make heads or tail over this?

I remember at one time there was a deer on the road that had been hit. My husband stopped and ran over and slung it on the back of the truck. He jumped back in and said, "it is less than an hour since that deer got hit, so we're not going to let it go to waste." I remember that it had been hit in the bum so that part was all bloodshot and could not be used, but most of it was very good. That reminds me of Grandma Clampet in the beverly hillbillies. hehehehehe. That's my roadkill! Romans 14 verse 5 One person regards one day holier than other days, and another regards them all alike. 3 Each must be fully convinced in his own mind.

:LOL: Yeah, that was a hoot. Here's a "Jack Pine Savage" story from Adams County Wisconsin. Careful if you have a weak stomach. My brother hit a big deer with his semi. The deer was still alive, but at the end of it's life. We have to wait for the state patrol to arrive to shoot a deer as it's considered hunting out of season to put a deer out of its misery after an accident. Any other method is considered okay. A guy in a pickup drives up and says "you want that", referring to the deer. My brother says "no", so the guy dispatches it with a bowie knife and throws it into his flatbed!! Fresh venison! My brother relayed the saying that in the 1930's, during the great depression, a "crow could starve to death flying over Adams County." They were picking the roads clean of road kill to eat it or feed it to their dogs. ..Hey, there's nothing wrong with that! At least it's not going to waste!
